It all started because James stole Joe Tex’s girlfriend, Bea Ford. Then, to make matters worse, James sent Joe a letter telling him that he was through with the Bea and Joe could have her back. Then came Joe’s diss record (yep an old school diss record…LOL) “You Keep Her,” where Joe called James out by name, saying he was better off without the Bea anyway.

But things got ugly at a show in Macon, Georgia. James hadn’t played his home turf in a while. Joe opened the highly anticipated homecoming. Joe came onstage wearing a beat up, torn blanket, fell down on his knees, grabbed his back like he was in terrible pain, tangled himself up, and hollered, “Please! Please! Please! Get me out of this cape!” Hilarious!

James was furious, and trailed Joe to an after-show at a local juke joint, Club 15. The band at the gig just happened to be Otis Redding and the Pinetoppers. Brown grabbed a couple of shotguns, went inside, and started firing at Joe Tex in front of everybody! Joe fled out the back, while Otis hid behind the piano. Apparently seven people were injured in the crossfire. JB ran back to his tour bus, got behind the wheel, and took off.
